Story

The sixteenth tutorial operation in Arknights, TR-16 gives an insight on how the cold and freeze Negative Statuses work, which is a new mechanism introduced in Episode 06.

At first Dobermann will explain about FrostNova and her Yeti Squadron who uses ice-based Originium Arts capable of disrupting friendly units. Then a demonstration on how the cold/freeze effects work are done by having a Yeti Caster spawn and attack Hibiscus, who are pre-deployed on D6; the Yeti Caster's third attack inflicts a cold effect that, as Dobermann notes, halves Hibiscus' ASPD, and will cause her to be frozen if she is hit by another cold effect. A Yeti Caster Leader then shows up and froze Hibiscus after three attacks, and she is kept frozen by the Yeti Casters since if frozen units are hit by another cold effect, the freeze duration will reset. Dobermann then explains that frozen Operators cannot attack and use skills, though they still can block enemies but will receive more damage when attacked by certain Yeti Squadron enemies.

With the demonstration concluded, the rest of the squad which includes Ansel, Beagle, Jessica, and Melantha is available for deployment. Use them to dispatch the Yeti Casters at the player's discretion, using what one have learned so far.
